Have you met Miss Jones is a lifestyle company dedicated to providing contemporary designs for the interior. Bone china votives sit side by side with magnificent capiz chandeliers, cushions, organic pottery and wooden trays and coasters. Products are sourced from across the globe and scrutinized to ensure they add value and pleasure to the living environment.

The philosophy embraces the essence of adaptability and

as such the range appeals to a wide range of budgets and sits equally well in a variety of interiors from inner city terraces to beachside retreats.

Jennifer Jones has a background in fashion, having worked in the UK and Australia for iconic brands such as Polo Ralph Lauren, Nike and Diesel. After 10 years in the fashion industry she left Diesel as Managing Director of Australia and started “Have you met Miss Jones” in 2006.

The business originally started as a fashion agency but her roots have drawn her back into the world of home-wares. Jennifer’s parents John and Millie have had an export company for the past 35 years, exporting beautiful items from the Philippines to the UK and Europe. Over many dinners and Sunday lunches a plan was hatched to launch their home-wares into the Australian market.

“Have you met Miss Jones” now operates as a home-wares company specialising in bone china and other beautiful items from the Philippines. Jennifer is responsible for the sales and distribution in Australia while John and Millie handle production in the Philippines.

I love the Bone China Hanging Swallow and the Canary on Stand, both of which I have sitting in my office. The Bone China Collections also include the Pebble Collection, the Beautiful Birds Collection and the Driftwood Collection.

They also carry a beautiful range of Clay Pottery and Laminated Capiz.
